RE: There are billions flowing into the US Treasury right now that wouldn’t happen without the current tariffs. So you deficit chicken hawks better start loving the tariff.
Yes, there are billions flowing into the US treasury right now and even as a result of the tax cuts, billions were already flowing in. More than during Obama’s administration.
But you are forgetting one thing — MORE MONEY IS FLOWING OUT BECAUSE OF OUR INCREASED SPENDING. Spending EXCEEDS revenue by much much more. This recent bipartisan budget only confirms this.
Our deficit and debt are INCREASING, not decreasing. And guess which foreign country holds a significant amount of our debt — if you say CHINA, go to the head of the class.
Which is partially alleviated by the tariff. Next.....
